Default Ford Transit 2.0l 2005 FWD Wont Start

Ford Transit 2.0l 2005 Wont Start but runs fin after easy start is used.

New glow plugs fitted.

Checked power to glow plugs starts at 12v then drops votlages when cranking (this varies between 3 - 8 volts) not sure if this is normal.

After reading other diesel non start posts I check the rev needle to see if it bounces - it only bounces when I stop cranking it jumps up slightly.

It has an error code for the egr valve other than that no fault codes.

Has anyone any ideas what i can test for at home without specialist equipment.

I dont think so however a friend suggested that there was issues with air entering the fuel filter when I removed it there it was half full.
