I've got a bunch of old PS2 engines that will soon see the light of day. So, if you don' t mind a question that has probably asked and answered, Barry, when you say
"Regardless, it's always smart to replace any MTH white, 8.4 volt battery before ever starting up any PS1 or 5 volt PS2 engine."
Replace with what? Sure, a BCR is a possibility, but to just get them running or do a quick test, a battery would be cheaper so what battery is appropriate? Regular 9 volt? Or should I bite the bullet and replace all batteries with BCR's regardless of cost?

You want a Ni Cad or NiMH in a common 9 volt case. They can be found in most hardware and drug stores these days. Don't use a common alkaline or any other non rechargable battery.
