try a new glow plug. make sure your glow starter is charged. if it was running hot it could have blown a plug on cooldown. i have had many OS plugs inmy OS motors do this. more of a batch issue i think though. but its still possible to happen to any plug. if it does start, when its going again, try to richen the top end a bit, it may be running lean and creating heat, which is burning out the plug.
