Yeah, I think that's where I'm heading with this one. I pulled the timer,
and there's a little snap-ring around the timer shaft which holds things
together, and I don't have a suitable tool to remove it (at least, not
without damaging it). If the timer fails completely then I'll dig
further, but for now I think it'll just live with it.

It's 50 bucks + s/h online for a new timer, and I can pick up a used
dryer for that around here and end up with a motor, sheet metal etc. from
the old one to use on projects, so it's not really worth actually buying
replacement parts for it :-)
