Is this the way a petcock is supposed to do when fuel line is off and and arrow is pointing at ON position - no dripping our pouring really (yes the tank is with gas)

Is vacuum supposed to draw the fuel from on and that is why it is not dripping. But since I ran out of fuel either the vacuum is not working or the petcock is not doing what it is supposed to
