hi it sounds like your fuel pump is leaking and when its facing downhill the fuel runs out the pipe causing a air lock but when its uphill fuel is kept in the pipe line. i think there is a rubber diaphragm inside pump that is replaceable hope this is of help

What would cause a dodge ram diesel engine to start hard when parked facing uphill but start easy when facing downhill?

Closely examine the entire length of the fuel line to see if there are ANY pinhole fuel leaks. Even the slightest amount of fuel seepage will result in a vacuum leak and that would cause the fuel line to suck air when the vehicle is facing uphill. If it's a small leak the action of the fuel pump could eventually overcome the leak, driving any trapped air out.

My 1989 buick century has been parked for 3 yrs has 65000 mls ran great when parked won't start now has new battery?

Start with the fuel pump. I have found in purchasing vehicles that have been parked for any length of time that I had always had to replace the fuel pump, strainer and filter.
