In my bumbling electrical diagnostics, I would have done about what you are doing. At this point with the AC working well on shore power there is a remote possibility of a fluke in the wiring, BTDT but rare.
It should be the generator, a micro air may mask the issue but it not the cure. There is no re4ason your generator should not start your AC, it waaaaay more generator than needed.
A weak or defective breaker on the genny was mentioned, that would be my next guess. Or the generator has to go back to the shop. I would want to hook up the genny to a heavy load to test, preferably another 13.5 AC. A long shot would be a intermittent short or some other defect in the AC, that is absolute worse case scenario and a nightmare. Good luck
