i like the thought of CR'ing him on the flop (assuming chompers folds to his probable lead). the problem is when a 'loose' player calls your CR...leaves you in no-man's land when you're faced to continue on the turn.

the problem leading the flop, is you face the same problem when he undoubtably calls.

against this type, i'd assume a check/call-fold from the get-go, letting your read/his actions be your guide.

Yes, I agree. I would put villain on a higher ace. Those low cards sucked for you because you will be unlikely to chop. And you didn't invest too many chips.

I like the check-call line. I also think you are ahead most of the time and I wouldn't lay down the turn. Even if he has AT or whatever you have outs (J,Q,K) on the river to chop the pot.

If you do lead, betting less on the flop and betting again (½ the pot) on the turn would be my line.

this one is easy...if you he is really as loose as you say he is, he will call anything, your ace is usually ahead so go ahead and value bet away. if he shows aggression, you are prolly beat.
