The Goodman 10716005 is a genuine OEM natural gas burner orifice (spud) for the AMEC961205DNAD gas furnace. The orifice meters the precise volume of natural gas delivered to each burner, setting the firing rate and ensuring clean, complete combustion. Because the bore diameter is calibrated to the furnace's rated BTU input and gas type, using the correct orifice is critical for safe operation and correct manifold pressure.
Orifice bore size directly controls the gas input rate, so this is a part where OEM matters. The 10716005 is machined to the exact drill size specified for the AMEC961205DNAD on natural gas. An incorrectly sized generic orifice can cause over-firing, sooting, delayed ignition, or a safety lockout. Always match the OEM part number and gas type.
Moderate (3/5). Gas-side work — shut off the gas supply and furnace power first. Remove the burner assembly or manifold, thread out the old orifice with the correct wrench, and torque the new spud without over-tightening. After installation, leak-check all connections and verify manifold pressure with a manometer. If you are not comfortable with gas work, use a licensed HVAC technician.
Genuine Goodman/Amana natural gas orifice. Confirm your model reads AMEC961205DNAD and that your supply is natural gas (not LP) before ordering.
