This is my contribution to the collective web knowledge about toilets! I have an old Eljer toilet, possibly from 1969. I recently successfully replaced its worn-out flapper valve with a PlumbPak “Flush valve assembly for Eljer Touch Flush,” purchased at Lowes.
Stamps inside toilet tank: PAT 101 697 (or possibly 191 697) and 2 623 216
Inside lid: 5540, MAR 14 1969, 2036, and PAT 191 697

I think I'll owe you a round of thanks. My old Eljer toilet is just a little newer: July vs. March. I'm off to Lowes for the needed flapper valve.
Plan to check out your Road Trip page once my I've fixed my toilet.

Still helpful! Thanks! ~Lori
Helped me too. Still looking for fill valve parts. Any ideas.
Mine is stamped "JUN 4 1973." I think I'm gonna to Lowes and see if that flapper works on mine. Thanks for the info.
