If it only runs with the start button held down that is a sign that voltage is not leaving the generator. This could be brush's, it could also be the voltage regulator.

It can be downloaded from Onan. Dropping the unit depends a lot on the make of your RV, but with a floor jack and an assistant it should not be beyond doing if you are handy.
