That battery is not sounding great. My bet would be on failing glow plugs.

Remote Fuel Burn Heater will not work with a low powered battery. Normal power of a good battery is around 12.4V / 12.7V. itisme |

The low voltage threshold for the FBH is 9.something volts.

Keep monitoring the battery to see if it's holding charge; highly likely it is the culprit.

if the temp was below -2 then you need new glow plugs , try a bit of easy start if it starts and then starts for the rest of the day you need new glow plugs |
