Ok thanks Jerry, Jim, and Ike. 6 ohms would be about 4 amps each at 24 volts, which make sense. I measured all mine, but it's been a year, so all I remember is that the total current draw was like 20 or 25 amps, including the intake heaters.
Do you mean 0.6 ohms when all four glow plugs and the two intake heaters are connected? I can't find the spec at the moment, but individually they have to be higher than that.
To reuse a copper gasket, anneal it by heating it red hot all over. You can let it cool, or quench it in water. Quenching will flake off most of the black oxide. Don't bend or otherwise cold work it after the annealing and it will be full-soft and as good as new.
