I have a old N 5500 marquis gold gas generator. When the start switch is pressed in the coach or at the generator nothing happens what could be the problem?

i don't know. see if there is a stop switch that is still in the 'off' position. using a small electric meter, test to see if there is power coming to the generator's starter. if all is well, you may need to have the starter repaired or replaced. on some
motors, a gentle tap on the starter sometimes allows motors to run again. be gentle.

I have an Onan 5500 Marquis Gold LPG generator that runs but backfires and spitfires. Need troubleshooting assistance!

have a gas shop inspect the gas converter / regulator
next check the ignition circuit for shorting / loose connections causing a spark at the wrong time
check the low oil sensor unit as it is known that they fail and cause indications of your problem
check oil level in the sump as it may be making/ breaking the circuit if too low
