You need a new pump. Should be 12 volts.

The pump is either bad and drawing too much current, this will cause a voltage drop, but should also blow a fuse. Also possible that you have a high resistance connection (dirty or corroded connectors, bad relay contacts, etc..) that is preventing the full current to get to the pump and causing a voltage drop.
