you want it to be tight enough to disengage the clutch fully but you don't want it to keep pressure on the throwout bearing b/c it will cause it to wear out quickly and can possibly even burn up your clutch if the clutch dosen't engage fully. so I am basically saying you want just enough slack not to keep tension on things and as long as it disenguages you should be good.
