I am not sure what the Air conditioner issue is you said it dumped a lot of water outside (it is supposed to dump outside)
Main problem with A/C is Dirt. Dirty filters (inside) limit air flow and increase the odds of icing of the evaporator coils
Dirty condenser coils (the side you can't see on most makers) prevent the dumping of heat to the outside and reduce cooling.
You never said the generator cut out that I found in 3 reads may have missed it
Did it damage the A/C. Likely not>
GFCI's trip for one reason. imbalance of power hot and neutral. this is to protect you should you become a 'Return" path.
Generator hard to start: YES if you do not follow the proper procedure..
Per the manual
Hold stop button like 30 seconds (or till the light comes on.. assuming the light works (Mine does not) Hold it a bit longer in fact this fires up yer old fuel pump.
(where I usually hop in)
Wait a few seconds then push start Just a short push
Wait like 30 seconds and hold start for up to 30 seconds. if not running wait 30 seconds and try again 30/30 Usually it starts on the 2nd try for me. Very very rarley on the 1st or 3rd
