Replace the motor with an LED (and appropriate resistor) to see if the timer still works. Don't get your hopes up!
You'll need a transistor - I'd use a MOSFET, I have IRF540N on hand and it would be fine - to take the control signal from the timer and control the current through the motor.
Your diode should be rated to 6A, if the 2X guideline is followed. 6A04 is an option, or this.
