With it that low I personally would not drive it until you found the issue or you'll be replacing injectors soon. When was the last time both fuel filters were replaced?

it's mechaincally driven pump off the cam so things can be sort of low when it's going off starter speed, also if your pump is bad it can give really lower pressures
