what kind of glow plugs are you getting? brand name, medium, or hot plugs?
 
How many gallons are on the engine? The bearings may be shot. Bad bearings kill glow plugs. The rod may have some play in it as well, which would do the same thing.
 
I use Traxxas glow plugs and have been using the same type the entire time. I have almost ran two gallons through this engine.
