A fuel pump is usually not halfway it is either good or bad. It can have things that may not work associated with it, like a relay or fuse. But the pump itself is either on or off. It is safe to drive until it stops working. Then it will need a mechanic/shop to fix it.

How can you tell if it is the fuel filter or fuel pump that needs to be replaced on a 90 Subaru Legacy?

if you have owned the car for a long time chances are the filter will need changing. the fuel pump should buzz when the ignition is turned on so if it does its a good sign it is ok. but there are companys out there that can check the fuel pressure to see if its ok. Adam www.aeautomotive.co.UK

Why Santa Fe has long starts Approx 10 secs sometime Only after is has sat some time any ideas?

Probable fuel issue! I'd check the vaccum line from the fuel pressure regulator to the intake manifold, if it has liquid fuel in it the regulator needs to be replaced. May also be due to liquid fuel in evap lines (caused by overfilling gas tank) coming through purge control solenoid valve.
