The Goodman 10716003 Natural Gas Orifice (burner spud) is a genuine OEM gas-metering component for the Goodman/Amana ACVC950714CXBA gas furnace. Threaded into the manifold ahead of each burner, the orifice's precisely drilled bore meters the natural-gas flow that mixes with combustion air — directly setting the BTU input and flame quality for that burner. A damaged, corroded, or wrong-size orifice causes poor flames, sooting, or incorrect firing rate.
OEM vs. Generic: Orifice bore diameter is calculated for the furnace's input rating, manifold pressure, and altitude. The OEM 10716003 is factory-drilled to the exact spec for the ACVC9 burner. An incorrectly sized generic orifice changes the firing rate, can produce carbon monoxide or sooting, and may void warranty. Always match the OEM drill size and fuel type.
Install Difficulty: Easy (1/5), but precision matters. Shut off gas and power, remove the burner assembly access if needed, and unthread the orifice with the correct deep socket — never over-tighten or nick the bore. Verify manifold pressure after installation. About 15 minutes; confirm clean blue flames before closing up.
Restore correct gas metering and a clean burn with this genuine Goodman OEM orifice.
