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.

Why is the Pacific coast in the desert?
Only the Pacific coast along South America is desert. Most of the Pacific coast line in the rest of the Americas is not desert. In South America the prevalent wind direction is from the east. The Andes Mountains prevent moisture from the east from crossing, creating a rain shadow desert along the Pacific Coast. In North America the prevalent wind direction is from the west so the coast receives rain. However, the mountains prevent the rain from moving inland so rain shadow deserts form in these areas.
