Nick, buying used can be a **** shoot. Sometimes you get lucky and everything falls into place.

My generator is finicky too. If it hasn't been run in awhile, it takes a bit of cranking to get it going. Once it goes, its fine but the AC load when it cycles causes it to trip off. The generator is noisy in the RV and vibrates. I really don't bother with it. I try to find an RV park with shore power if I need AC.
The manuals aren't really worth much for information. Its really a mix of vendor accessories like the stove, generator, fridge, etc. The main Vanguard one is kind of worthless. I'd ask them to send it to you if you reach a purchase agreement. Not a deal breaker.
I bought mine on my intuition from my visual inspection and test drive. A big part was confidence in the seller that you trust them. My sellers were elderly who bought it new. If your sellers look suspicious, don't be afraid to walk away. There are plenty of RV's for sale out there.
