Ford escort estate, when applying the gas the car moves to the left or right. even more so when slight turning and applying the gas the car is all over the place

If I understand correctly the steering wheel must be held in different positions to keep the car going straight while accelerating/braking accelerate hold wheel to one side ...braking hold wheel to other side. check strut mount(rubber mount on top of strut where it contacts car body)

Car strugles to shift once its warm.

If the engine revs high and the vehicle barely seems to pull, then you are likely to need a transmission rebuild. Ensure that the trans is full of fluid. If the considerably low it could be the cause. If the engine lugs when it "struggles" to move then it could be an engine performance issue.

How do i get the spark plug covers off on a ford escort 1600 finesse estate so that i can change or clean the plugs

Just pull them off, no special tools, grip firmly and yank, be gentle but stern, if they feel "stuck" jiggle it as you pull.

Glow plugs ford escort diesal 1.8

Since you're running diesel, you might need an engine block heater. Even the largest vehicles need to keep the block warm when the winter temperatures drop. It keeps the engine oil & fuel looser.
