The UTG limp is ungood, unless you are absolutely certain you will get multiple limpers and no raise PF. I refer you to the PF section in SSHE regarding middle pocket pairs. IIRC, it says something to the effect that mid-pocket pairs either play well against a very small field (in which you are more likely win unimproved) or a large field for set value.

UTG limp is fine in a 10-handed game at very low stakes. I think you're extremely likely to get the 3-4 overlimpers that you want, and raising will not as likely narrow the field.

Also, fold the flop. You have nowhere near the equity to continue particularly with two left to act behind you including the preflop raiser.

I agree with this. The set outs bring lots of straight redraws, so you're only looking at about 2 outs including your backdoor straight draw.
