I don't think it'll turn out to be glow plugs - the engine started and ran as if not firing on all cylinders. When the glow plugs go it just takes progressively longer to get the thing started, but once it is it will keep going. So winter is generally the time a problem will appear, if poor plug condition is the problem. Sounds more like a fuel supply issue.
Never knew about the fuel solenoid tho' so it may be worthwhile asking Mr. T. for details as to how to check it.
Agreed this may be an appropriate opportunity to renew plugs and have injectors serviced.
