fold preflop

When you are playing SSS you never ever limp first in.

At the flop you can push or fold.
I would fold, I thnik your fold equity is not high enough and you don´t have the outs.

Fold preflop, Fold flop. Fold KJ on the first opportunity you can.

Can't he count the 9 FD outs + 2 for trips + 3 for Gutshot = 14 outs, which is surely enough for a push?

Fold preflop, but it was enough said about that.

As played, you have an easy push on the flop. You could also raise, but the raise would consist of most of your stack(2.5-3$), so push is better, specially because your chances for winning lower on the turn if you don't improve your hand.

About outs, you have at least 14 outs as dandycal said, but I think on average you can count at least 1 more out for the king, that's because SB is not a coldcaller, but only SB completer, so I don't put him on AJ-AK.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, 13+ outs is enough to go all-in even w/o fold equity.

As played Shove the Turn is the alternative move if you did not shoved postflop!
