A float carburetor has a contained area called a bowl that holds fuel. The float shuts off fuel into the bowl to stop it from overflowing, then allows more fuel in as the carburetor needs it. This is a low pressure fuel system, many of which have fuel pumps running from the engines power rather than more modern electric pumps.
