check that you have connected correctly the cables for the torque converter solenoid / servo unit as it may not be making good contact after the engine change .

Without being there to actually do some checking, I'd take a look at the signal switch itself. (In the top of the column) First though, check the bulbs, as I have seen (but rarely) a filament in a bulb break and re-connect itself to the other leg of the circuit.

You most likely need to replace the Glow plug controller.

With most relays, you have 4 wires. One is power to the component the relay controls, one is a ground to the relay magnet, one is power to the magnet, and the fourth goes to the component, in this case the glow plugs. The ground usually comes from the computer.With the key on you should have power to two terminals and you would jumper the hot terminal to the glow plug terminal. Or use a test light or meter to check for power on the glow plug circuit.

try adding some stabil, or heet to the fuel and add some fresh fuel as well, sometimes all it wants is a fresh drink to clean up the run. Hope this helps.
