Should I install the bump steer kit?

I am about to have the turbo tie rod kit installed. Should I have the bump steer kit installed at the same time?

SC does not start when warm. Why?

My SC starts just fine when cold.

When warm, it will start if I start it within a few minutes.

If I wait more than 15 minutes, it will not start.

What do you think is the problem?

I only use 50 psi for storage. That was the advice I received several years ago, from my mechanic.

Of course in the spring I bring pressure back to normal.
