You shouldn't have gotten that short-stacked in the first place. But the answer to your question is: NO, you need to double/triple up... unless you're right on the bubble with a huge payout or something. Good luck next time.

Push it.

But don't wait that long anyway.

I think you need to push unless there are strange circumstances, like the money spots pay out to 90th and it's a lot of cash.

good hand, you will getting called by at least the limper, maybe more, but you are in a horrible situation and need to get lucky. so push.

You are going to get called atleast by the limper, but this is the best hand you are likely to get. You have 2 1/2xBB, so you are going to get called if you wait to open push.

Yea push, but you should have gone with a lesser hand a long time ago. You didn't say whether you're in the money or not. The only way I would Fold is if there was one more person to bust before the money and with so few chips I had already given up on the final table.
