You can try replacing the flapper with a timed flapper. You can purchase one at Home Depot and they are made by fluidmaster. Set the flapper on the shortest flush time thus reducing the flow of water. If this doesn't help, try to isolate the particular holes that are causing the greatest amount of splash. Using an epoxy glue (after the holes are completely dry) plug them up with the glue. This is a permanent fix so be careful.

You need a heavy-bodies substance to fill the hole.
I have no idea if you can make this repair titanic-proof against leaks

Putty-stick-type epoxy from hardware or home center: Knead two parts together and apply in as many applications needed until hole is filled.
Auto-body filler? Fiberglass? Shoe goo? Ordinary caulk? Silicone caulk? Construction adhesive.
Nothing is going to be waterproof, so if a flood is likely, I would buy replacement product.

I checked the Eljer website; several different toilets came up searching with the number you provided but
no information on a Preserver model.

I think your best bet would be to contact your nearest dealer for the Eljer products. You can use the location finder on the Eljer website:

It is possible a dealer may have old stock oand should know if there is a substiute available.
