The Goodman 10716005 Natural Gas Orifice (spud) is a genuine OEM burner component for the Amana/Goodman AMVM970603BNBA modulating gas furnace. This precision-drilled brass orifice threads into the manifold and meters the exact volume of natural gas delivered to each burner. Correct orifice sizing is critical: it sets the BTU input, flame quality, and combustion safety of the furnace. Even a small size deviation can cause sooting, delayed ignition, or a lifted/unstable flame.
The orifice drill diameter is factory-matched to this furnace's rated BTU input and altitude derate schedule. Generic or mis-drilled spuds change the gas flow and can produce dangerous incomplete combustion and carbon monoxide. This genuine OEM 10716005 guarantees the correct bore for safe, efficient, in-spec heating and keeps your warranty intact.
Moderate (3/5) — Gas work required. Shut off gas and power, disconnect the manifold, remove the old spud with a proper orifice/deep socket, thread in the new one to spec, then leak-test every joint with soap solution before firing. If you are not comfortable working on the gas train, have a licensed HVAC technician install it.
Genuine OEM part — confirm number 10716005 and your NG gas type before ordering.
