The fuel pump provides fuel under pressure to the carb where the float valve lets it into the bowl until the bowl is full. If the valve is stuck open or misadjusted or has a piece of something in the seat the fuel will continue to flow and squirt out the top. The mixture will be so out of balance that it won't start or if it does, it won't run well.
