Default Top 2, raise the turn?

2/4 Limit Holdem

I have A8o and limp in on the Button after 3-4 limpers in front, blinds call, about 6 handed to flop

FLOP Ad 8h 5h

checks to MP limper who leads out, folds to me, I raise, folds back to MP limper he 3-bets, I call,

Turn is offsuit 4 (Ad 8h 5h) 4s

MP leads out.... my action??

is this an obvious raise and see what he does or should I play it cautiously and just call the turn?

Have to think you are ahead and a favorite. Raise. Slow down if he 3-bets? I would. He's gotta 3-bet for me to give a set any likelihood.

Cap the flop, it will look like a flush draw.

Yeah, I would've capped the flop. I don't really know how that would look like a flush draw or why that's a reason to do something.

I'm not so sure about the preflop limp.

Only reason you're calling the flop is to raise the turn, so raise it.
