To the OP, the bleeder does not need to be gorilla torqued. I don't have the factory spec at the top of my head, but like brake bleeders, ~5-6 ft lb is plenty. To me, snug with a small wrench (10mm on the sport brakes, i think 8mm on the clutch). If it's leaking it could be the tip is damaged or the seat (in the slave), thus requiring it to be tightened more.
To expand on what joe said in post #5, the height is adjusted with the cruise/starter limited switches. If left unadjusted, the switch (esp the top/cruise) can potentially apply slight pressure to the pedal, resulting in a partially engaged clutch.
Same for the lower switch (starter). Improper adjustment will prevent the clutch from fully disengaging.
