Check the turn?
 
Is this a good spot to check the turn or do we bet because we have a lot of outs against a passive opponent?

villian is a 27/5 0.8/0.8/1,2.

I bet here, charge the diamonds and maybe get a high to fold.

This guy looks fairly tight, so I'm not convinced we can fold him all that often once he calls on the flop. I think this is a good spot to check with outs.

Without a reliable WTSD read, I'd check behind here. As a poster earlier mentioned, he's pretty tight which means he's less likely to be pairless after he calls the flop, and that nine hits a lot of hit potential holdings that might checkraise you here. The pot's not huge, so it's not a disaster to give a free card to a draw, and he's not likely to bluff since he's so passive. So I would check.

ok, thanks for the response in this particular case he had pretty standard 35went to sd, so you like a check?

yeah... the pot is just too small to worry too much about draws and you'll make more when you hit if you check the turn.

So, if we check behind on the turn and a rag comes on the river. If villian bets what is our play here. This is where I seem to be having the hardest time. It seems that if I check the turn then I am getting bet into 80% of the time. Do we call the river, or are we forced to fold?

i think if the turn is checked through and villain donks river, one must fold.

If villain is fairly standard, I would bet. If a tight villain called on a slightly less coordinated board, I would check and fold river if bet into. I think villain is peeling light, or on a draw that we beat (non A-high fd)more than 20% of the time. Like you said, if you check the turn you are being bet into often on the river, and it's tought to call with K-high (even though it may be correct).
