When these clutches start to warm up, you get noticably less play in the clutch lever. If the clutch wasn't properly adjusted before, and then got hot, I could easily see it slipping. It's also possible that the P.O. used automotive oil, which uses friction modifiers and will tend to ruin clutches. I'd readjust the clutch properly and see what it does.
As for the chain, they're inexpensive enough that I would just replace it, particularly if it was the original, no name chain. I'd also give the sprockets a good hard look before reusing them.
