tried to post this before but screwed it up. new to posting hands.
dover downs 1/2. effectice stacks $100. two limpers hero raises $7 w/AQo three off the button. sb and limpers call. pot is $28. flop comes Q/9/4 rainbow sb checks and first limper bets $25! second limper folds and sb tries to fold brfore the action is even on him. villian has hero covered and always seem to bet out way to big with any made hand but plays nearly any two cards. these sort of players who bet out way too much and i nearly always confused. do i shove here?

If villain bet out a live trout, that might confuse me, but a psb? Not high-fiving myself but I'd still be throwing the rest of my 50bb into the middle.

Preflop raise more, to like $12. You have value and it will create a better SPR for you if you flop TPTK.

As played I would flat the flop with the intention of getting it in on the turn. If you raise the flop he might find a fold with a weaker Q (though I doubt it) or a lesser pair (fairly likely). Flatting will keep his range a bit wider. You will have less than a pot size bet on the turn, so if he bets call or shove, and if he checks shove yourself. Take advantage of being in position.

Shove. And you need to raise more preflop. 7 is bad

Shoving a great idea if you want to be sure you make the minimum and lose the maximum. The pot will be $78 and the effective stacks are $68 with two streets to play. Let him bet his KQ out rather than give him a chance to fold.
