Keep cranking for awhile. The dead head system on that year can take awhile to get air out.

OK if it is smoking and it is trying to crank but just want go on and start does that tell you that everything is working? When I first start turning it over it want smoke and then it starts smoking and trying to,how can I check the glow plugs,the wts light is working and I have it plugged in. It is a automatic or I would pull crank it.

That trying to start like that kinda tells me it's running out of HPOP oil. By saying that, it could be that the LPOP is loosing suction to keep the HPOP full, the pickup tube could be cracked where it connects to the LPOP. There is three ways to check that. #1 Immediatly after cranking, check the HPOP oil level, should be full, if not, do #2. #2 Overfill the crankcase by a gallon, then try to start. #3 Jackup the rear as Hi as you can, so the pan oil floods the front of the pan. Overfilling won't hurt the engine, but will tell you wether the tube is cracked or not, these engines have a history of that tube cracking.
