Like 'bot said, the reserve inlet of the petcock sits lower than the on inlet. That way when your fuel level drops below the on inlet, the engine will sputter. It's a very low tech way of saying "hey dummy, you need gas". When you switch to reserve, it does the exact same thing as on except you are now feeding the carb from a lower point, that's all.

There's no problem that a full tank of gas and a sunny day can't fix!
