I'm not sure about the turn here. Is bet/fold a better line? My thoughts were check behind to keep the pot small and check/call a small bet on the river depending on the card. Any thoughts?

i like your line. the turn is a horrible card.

i would probably fold most rivers unless the bet was < 1/2 pot.

Hmm I am going to bet fold the Turn for a free SD, if I think I am beat here against this opponent, then C/F turn and river is obv better.

Without reads, is raising it up pre a possibility?

As played, I think your line is fine though if I had more guts I'd bet fold turn too.
