Sounds like you've got a starter/solenoid issue. How old is the battery? There is a date code on it. If more than five years, it's probably wise to replace it. You can check the glow plugs, but if all you get is a click, that's not a sign of a glow plug problem. Good plugs measure about 0.7 ohms cold.
