The Goodman 10716003 is a genuine OEM natural gas burner orifice (spud) engineered for the AKSS920905DXAA gas furnace and related Goodman and Amana models. The orifice meters the precise volume of natural gas delivered to each burner, setting the air-fuel mixture that produces a clean, efficient blue flame. Its drill size is matched to the furnace's BTU rating and gas type — using the correct orifice is essential for safe combustion, proper heat output, and low soot/CO production.
The OEM 10716003 is drilled to Goodman's exact orifice size and thread spec, guaranteeing correct gas flow and flame quality out of the box. A Generic orifice may save money but requires you to verify the drill size and threads match precisely — an incorrect orifice can cause overfiring, sooting, or unsafe combustion. For a gas-metering component, OEM is strongly recommended.
Moderate (3/5). Shut off the gas and power, remove the manifold or access the burner, unthread the old orifice with a nut driver/socket, and thread in the replacement to spec. Allow 20–30 minutes and always leak-test the connection with soap solution before firing. If you are not comfortable working on gas components, use a licensed HVAC technician.
