Default my 1994 escort lx wont start

Hello everyone this is my first post so hopefully im doing ok. I was driving my 1994 ford escort lx 1.9 manual home one day and it died. It didn't shake or anything just quit, but i still had lights in the dash. When i tried to start it, it turned over but wouldnt start. After towing it home i started troubleshooting. I checked timing belt and it was fully intact. I have good spark, and Im getting fuel to the rail with good pressure. One problem my car has is a bad heater core. I am wondering if my ecm is bad seeing how it is located directly under the heater core. The only code I get from the ecu is 33 which is egr valve. My next step I think is going to be to buy a used ecm, will other models of the escort work, and do you think this is my problem. Im at my witts end, any idea would be much appreciated.

thanx
brendan
