It could be a timing issue with the belt. The engine isn't going to be starting and running one minute and then be totally worn out with low compression the next time you go to start it! You need to check the other three plugs as well. I doubt it would start on only 3 in cool to cold weather. Mine at one point had two bad glow plugs and in warm weather with the engine cold it was an extended cranking time compaired to normal.. I'm talking 70 degrees outside. Only 3 plugs possibly working and 40 or so degrees I doubt it would happen.

Keep us posted.
