I'd seriously consider check/folding 5th multiway. This hand doesn't play nearly as well mulitway w/o any real backup help, which didn't develop.

With the Q being burned and another J out and no straight or flush developing, this isn't a hand that you can confidently push, thus lowering it's value. The way the board is developing, you'll be check/calling the majority of the time. I really like to avoid that.

Also, consider the 3 likeliest hands that you are facing vs 898 showing. If you're against a set, you are a huge underdog. Against 2 pr., a slight underdog. Against a pr. and flush draw/or straight draw, maybe a slight favorite. Against the majority of the villians range, your equity stinks and versus the minority of his range, you're only a slight fave. This has been a critical lesson for me, try to stay away from the marginals.

fold on 5th because of the range of the 898, he's either got you beat or he's got a pair and a big draw, not to mention its not unlikely for the 6QA to have a pair of aces, plus one of your queens is already gone.

Yep, muck 5th, usually want two pair or a big draw by now unless you can certainly say you're ahead, which you can't.
