Why does my Ford escort not start sometimes unless you leave it in gear manual take the emergency brake off and rock it back and forth?

it's a starting motor problem. The rocking motion makes the engine rotate slightly, finally kicking it in (Same as a push start, only on a really, really small scale!)

How do you change the brakes on a 2002 ford escort 5 speed?
If you don't know how to do the brakes you really need to get an instruction manual from the parts place. Brakes are a safety item and you shouldn't change them unless you are sure of the procedure itself.

How do you do a timing change on a Ford Escort 2000?
Ignition timing is not adjustable. Cam timing is adjustable by the "guess" method unless you are replacing the timing belt and using the timing marks on the belt drive cogs, in which case you need a repair manual that has detailed instructions.
Is it technically possible to replace automatic transmission in 1998 Ford Escort SE with a manual one?
Yes, it is possible, but unless you have a donor car to salvage the necessary parts from, it is not cost effective. My advice, sell this car and buy one with a factory installed manual. You will be money and labor ahead. You will also avoid all the problems with such a switch on a FWD car.
