understand that a duel flush toilet is just a water saving idea and not an engineered specific situation
the flush is 1/2 for one flush or full for the other
the flush action and waste disposal is the same as for a single flush unit
Then you either have to lower the water height so that it doesn't overflow the overflow tube, or you have to replace a seal on the ballcock or replace the ballcock with a modern style.
A vent would cause an odor problem but not a back up problem. There should be a clean out between the house and septic tank, if it is full the blockage is down the line, if its dry the blockage is in the house.
Depending on the type of water regulator/flush valve you have it varies. Usually there is a screw that regulates how much travel there is on the arm with the float on the end, or the float that moves up and down on the column. If you restrict this movement the water fills less and vice versa.
They don't have rebuilt parts kits that I am awareof, but you can get replacement parts for them at most any RV service center. They are pretty easy to repair yourself. Tool Belt Diva
first shorten the chain from flush lever to the flapper valve by one or two links at a time until flushing properly
second the flapper valve might need a wipedown as well as its seal (top edge of tube where water goes down into bowl) the leaking is because the flapper valve is not seating properly.. you may need to replace the flapper itself.. easy to do, and a common part at hardware store.
Yes, it will run up your bill! Sounds like the float is hanging up. Take tank lid off and flush, watch the float and if your tank fills quickly but does not stop, bend the float arm to angle the float down further, this should allow your water to stop coming in much quicker. The other possibility could be if the plug at the bottom does not seal correctly after flushing, if so, the water will leak until the plug sits down all the way.
