1994 FORD ESCORT

Ok so I was going down the freeway and my escort died. THe fuel cut out light was stuck on so after the tow to my house I replaced it, no luck. I figgured it might be in the wiring but the fuel pump is kicking on and the swich seems to work but I still have a fuel cut out light. I replaced the fuel filter, plugs, wires, coil pack, ignition control module, pvc valve, air filter, and still the fuel cut out light is on. The engine turns over and acts like its going to start but there is still no combustion, at this point I know it has to be electrical but dont know where to go next. Anyone got an idea?

I know the fuel cut out is working I tested it and in the up position I have no power to fuel pump, when pressed power reurns, I know I am getting fuel, im wondering if I may have initialy flooded the engine and now some sensor is fuel rich and reading as flooded is this possable and if so where should I look?
