Default replacing ignition rotor

ok this is probably the most awkward question i ever asked considering i have a little more then a general knowledge of auto mechanics

how the heck do i replace the rotor on a 90 4.3 is it just a pull off? i even went as far as looking in the haynes manual and the describe 2 screws holding it in which there are none.

Did you look at the replacement rotor and does it come with screws or screw holes?
If there are no screws then it just pulls off. I have had some rotors (can't remember year or engine) that are supposed to pull off but the get seized on. Sometimes they can be pried off and sometimes I've had to split them with a hammer.
