I want to know if I can pay off an ecuadorian border patrol official to let me in from Brazil. I am an american and have no criminal intent. Its just that my tourist visa in ecuador will expire before my return flight back to the states and I would like to go to brazil or Peru after the expiration of my Visa. Do you think it will work? I just need to get back into ecuador for one day to catch my return flight home. Thanks!

Maybe, maybe not. It is also possible that you could be arrested for trying to bribe them and/or sneaking into the country. I'd try to get a short extension.

I doubt it very much and i personally wouldn't attempt it, why not get in touch with the place that issued you the visa and ask them what to do. You might end up in a Brazilian prison and i don't think you would enjoy the experience.

If you leave ecuador, cross over into brazil or peru, then try to go back into ecuador, you should receive a fresh visa. So, you should have no problems. Leave ecuador, hang out for a bit in peru or brazil, then when you need to go back to ecuador you should get a new stamp in your passport, and in turn a new tourist visa. You may get less days on your visa than you got before, but should be a month at least, and enough to catch your flight home. This border crossing proceedure is pretty common for extending stays in any country in South America.

As Tony said, you just need to get your passport re-stamped when you re-enter Ecuador. Remember, they are still going to check your passport when you pay your Airport Tax to leave the country, and if the most recent visa in your passport has expired, you will not only not be allowed to board your plane, but you will have to go to a government office and pay a fine before they'll let you leave. I had a friend who had accidentally been here in Ecuador for 91 days last summer on a 90-day tourist visa when she tried to leave. They wouldn't let her on a plane until she paid a several-hundred dollar fine, and ended up missing the original flight and having to catch another the next morning.
