My understanding is this timer uses typical T100 series 120Volt clock motor.
The motor has identifying numbers printed on it.
T100 series 120V clock motor is available at Grainger:
http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/INTERMATIC-Time-Clock-Motor-1PNK1?Pid=search
Selection of Intermatic clock motors are available on-line:
http://www.electricsupplyonline.com/prod/intermatic-motors.php

To replace motor:
Timer mechanism snaps out of box using a thumb-spring located at top of mechanism.
Clock is located on back of mechanism, and is held by 2 star-screws.
You can buy star screwdriver bit at auto parts store or hardware.
Clock motor has two white wires that are connected to terminals on front of timer.
Be sure to tighten terminals screws very tight after replacing clock motor.

Pool timer

You have the T103 timer rated 120-240. The clock motor part of timer is 120Volt. This is a very versatile timer, but confusing for non-electrician and electrician alike.
Solve problem by converting timer from T103 to the 240V T104 by changing clock motor from 120V WG1570 to 240V WG1573.
Buy wg1573 clock motor at WW Grainger or drillspot etc.
Resources:
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-replace-Intermatic-clock-motor.html
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T104-Intermatic-timer.html#T104
This simple fix is intentionally designed by Intermatic so their timers are not only adaptable to all electrical needs, but also can be maintained to last 25 years by replacing clock motors and trippers as needed

Can i change the model T101P3 timer from 110 to 220?

1) Yes. Change clock motor from WG1570 to WG1573
Wiring is same as T102 timer:
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T104-Intermatic-timer.html#T102
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-replace-Intermatic-clock-motor.html

2) If new pump motor is 2-speed, then converted T101P3 cannot handle 2-speed pump.
Use T106 timer, or T1906 timer:
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T104-Intermatic-timer.html#2-speed
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T1906-Intermatic-timer.html#pool

3) New T106 or T1906 timer mechanism will snap into T103P enclosure without changing boxes.
Any intermatic timer will snap into Intermatic enclosure.
Other brands of timer can adapt to Intermatic enclosure using Tork IAP adapter bracket.

How to wire a T174 intermatic time switch timer

Intermatic T174 wires exactly like the T104 240Volt timer.
Only difference between T174 ans T104 is the day skipper wheel on T174.
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T104-Intermatic-timer.html#T104

These timers are very versatile and can be wired many ways, and changed to control different voltages by changing clock motor wires, or changing clock motor.
Voltages include typical 240Volt. But also 277V, 480V, 120V, 208V and 24Volt

How connect a new intermatic t104r 120v

T104 timer is 240Volts.
Not 120Volt
You can convert timer into 120V by changing clock motor from WG1573 to WG1570. This action will convert the T104 into T103.
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-replace-Intermatic-clock-motor.html

The T104 timer can be wired many different ways:
Copy following link for illustrations showing both T104 and T103 wiring
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T104-Intermatic-timer.html

Add a comment with specifically what you are connecting to timer, and I will comment back with more detail as needed.

I have a Intermatic T40404R and need a replacement timer. I have examined the timers in my unit and find no part numbers. Other sites offer a T101M as well as a T104M. Which is the correct timer for my...

Thank you for including model number.
Intermatic catelog shows that T40404R is shipped with two T104M timer mechanisms.
However the mechanisms can be changed out for either T101M or T104M, and these timers can be wired many different ways so there is not 100% certainty unless you know or test voltages.

Here's the general difference
T101M is 120 Volt with 120Volt clock motor
T104M is 240 Volt with 240Volt clock motor

You can buy $20 clock motor and $3 trippers and fix the timer mechanism instead of replacing it.

How Intermatic dial timer clock works.
Clock motor rotates dial.
Intermatic clock motor, located on back of mechanism, are replaceable
Trippers located on outer edge of dial push on-off lever
ON tripper pushes lever one direction
OFF tripper pushes lever opposite direction.
Lever pushes electrical contacts together and pulls contacts apart.
When lever moves, manual override also clicks back and forth with audible click.
To replace timer, replacement snaps into box without needing to changing box.
