Glow Plugs Don't Work

I have intermittent glow plug operation on a CGP30 with the Mitsu S4S engine.

My question is: Where is the time delay relay for the glow plugs (none shown in the wire schematic) and how are they reading temperature to tell the glow plugs to fire (in winter) or not (in summer). Nothing in the service manual.

In 1898, author Morgan Robertson wrote a novel called 'Futility', which described an "unsinkable" ship named the Titan that sank after hitting an iceberg. Fourteen years later, the Titanic sank in a strikingly similar fashion.
