PX engine into 152L2: wiring question....

Hello Folks. The sun is out, and i am on the last leg of my 152L2 project, and, unfortunately, its wiring time.

I have most of it sussed, but i have a couple or stray wires from the stator. Its a PX200 engine (well a 221cc Malossi ;) ) but its been 20 years since i owned a vespa and i am pulling, what is left of, my hair out!

I have found homes for the Green (kill switch), White (earth?) and Red wire (CDi), but where do the Black and the Blue ones go?

Any ideas would be much help..........

Red, white and green go direct to the CDI (another green goes from here to kill switch).
Blue is power to regulator.
Black is earth.

I purchased a new loom, that converts an old vespa to a PX engine.

The feed to the regulator is yellow on this, and the earth is white. DO i earth the white cable to the engine and / or frame?

Thanks for your help. I should have it smoking in no time :P

Not familiar with the loom, but if yellow is the main AC lighting feed, then it goes to one of the G's on the reg along with the stator blue.
And if you're sure the white is an earth then connect it to the frame along with the stator black.
