Early in a SNG, what is the line you would take if you flop top pair weak kicker from the Blinds. I generally check/fold the flop if somebody bets and lead the turn if it is checked around and no overcard falls. Is this too weak? Should I be leading this flop? And shutting down if I'm called?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

MP1 (t800)
MP2 (t975)
MP3 (t490)
CO (t985)
Button (t775)
SB (t995)
Hero (t770)
UTG (t785)
UTG+1 (t755)
UTG+2 (t670)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 9/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t15, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t75) Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 7/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 4/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>

SB checks, Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, MP bets t50, CO folds
SB folds, Hero folds???

I don't think you need to start fighting for this small pot OOP against four villains. Well played. Leading the turn on a blank is good too, I think.
