Just shut it down including the fuel pumps.

They really start going when the raw, burning fuel out the stack runs back down on top of the prime mover and melts the fuel rails which are rubber/plastic.

I've heard stories of fire departments sticking their hose down the exhaust stack. That is NOT good for the prime mover.
