rotor removal

This is an easy one for everyone. I'm about to do a little tune up and replace the distributor cap, rotor, and plugs. My question is how do I get the rotor off? I've tried pulling it off and it doesn't come off. Am I not pulling hard enough? I was afraid of breaking it. As far as I can tell there is no screw holding it on. I have an '85 GSL. Like I said it should be easy. thanks.

The rotor should just pull off. You need to apply a little force to do it, but if you're pulling really hard and it won't come, you have another problem.

I got it thanks for the help. It came off very easily. I got everything replaced and the car runs great. The plugs were really dirty.
