Moving across the equator, or moving north and south in general, does not alter the time or the date. It is by moving east and west that you can alter the time and date. The most abrupt change comes at the International Date Line.

Does the time change as you go north or south of the Equator along the same longitude line?
No.
Why dont equatorial countries observe daylight saving time?
Being closer to the equator means a smaller difference in length of days between summer and winter. In places farther from the equator winter means shorter days. Daylight savings pushes the sunrise to a time where people must be up to work. In tropical climates the day doesn't get shorter, so noone needs to save its light!

What is the time difference between the Equator and the East Coast?
Going straight south from the (US) East coast, you will end up on the equator. The equator is a line that splits Earth in two halves perpendicular of Earth's rotation axis, so the equator spans ALL time zones, depending on which point of the line you are. So, if you're on the Equator in Colombia, it will be a 0 hours time difference, while if you are on the Equator in Kenya, there will be an 8 hours difference and so on. However, if you care for the South American country called "Ecuador" which is on the Equator, and if by East Coast you mean the one in the US, the time difference is 0 hours.
How the gravitational acceleration will change when you move from equator to north or south pole on the surface of earth?
It will increase very slightly at the poles compared to the equator, because the Earth's radius at the poles is slightly less than it is at the equator.
Does the time change as you go north or south of the equator?
In general, no, the time does not change as you cross the equator.

Does Earth's gravity change as you get closer to the equator?
