Like Rawze said, if it's not on the intake side it's not to worry about.

Next someone said something about carrying a board to cover the intake in the event of a runaway. Carry a sharp knife instead.

Turn the key off. Then cut one of the two boots going to the intake (Drivers side boots)
Think about it. It's running away because it's getting Oil fed to it through the intake. Cut the boot and pull the tube away from the intake It quickly gets a breath of fresh non fuel containing air and with the key off it's getting no fuel from the fuel circuit. So it will shut right off shortly there afterwards. No need for the board cause by the time you got the intake off to put the board on it it would not be getting the oil diet anymore anyway.

CO2 fire extinguishers work well and are safe.
