My 1970 volkswagen bug carburetor leaks We replaced the float valve. The carburetor softly gurgles. The gas appears on the bottom of the throttle linkage and at the base. How do we fix it?

What if your float is not floating? Food for thought...
If your float has gone bad then it wil not give enough force to close the Float Valve. Get a new float. If this does not fix it then the float valve you got is defective.

Some were and some weren't. Pull the breather and look inside the intake of what appears to be the carburetor. If you see an injector then it is Throttle Body FI.
Does a Chevy 1995 pick up have fuel enjectors?
Yes it is a single point fuel injection system. What appears to be a carburetor is in reality a throttle body housing for the injector located inside. If you remove the air filter and look down the throat you will see the injector.
Strikemaster mag 2000 bogs down when applying the throttle and dies also noticed gas leaking from bottom of carb is this normal?
It appears that the engine floods when you apply the throttle, thus why it bogs down, and the leakage from the bottom of the carburetor. Inspect the air filter to ensure it is not clogged or dirty. If the problem is not there, inspect the spark plug and clean or replace it if necessary. If the problem persists, then the carburetor settings are probably too rich. If that is the case, rotate the needle valve clockwise 1/8 turn to close slightly.
What does it mean if smoke appears when accelerating stops for a while and then suddenly blows a great amount then transmission starts to slip but it is not overheating and the oil appears OK?
probably sucking transmission fluid through a broken diaphragm on transmission modulator. look for a vaccuum hose going from carburetor or throttle body area down to an external pod like device mounted on the transmission.
