.01-2.0 ohms is the resistance range...so theoretically all your glow plugs are fine...

less than 2 ohms is fine (according to haynes/chilton manuals). 2K ohms is the incorrect value, the entire system would only draw 50mA!

you are good to go!! Remember if the GPR tests bad you should use the Stancor unit. Don't mess around with the OEM or auto store replacement.
