Starting issues

Just picked up an l200 animal from local auction. 73k miles warranted and she's in great Nick. Only problem is that she needs easy start down the air intake to fire up. Battery is fine. I'm guessing glow plugs or fuel pump ? Had jeep Cherokee before this but always wanted an l200 so pretty new to these fine trucks. It's a 2002 plate ?

Take glow plugs out and test with a jump pack, make sure all leads etc are clean and not broken.
Drop test the battery, needs 11v when cranking.
There is also relay for the plugs,

Cheers, she probably needs a good service as she don't pull brilliantly at low revs. Battery is at 15v so prob the plugs. I'll book her into a diesel specialist at the weekend 👍

Cheers
