The Goodman 10716005 Natural Gas Orifice is a genuine OEM burner spud that meters the flow of natural gas into a main burner on the AMES920803BNAA gas furnace and compatible Goodman/Amana units. The orifice's precision-drilled bore sets the gas input rate for each burner, so the correct part is essential for proper flame quality, rated BTU output, and safe, efficient combustion.
Orifice bore diameter directly controls the gas input rate, and it must be sized to the furnace's BTU rating and local gas pressure. The OEM Goodman spud is drilled to the factory specification for this model. An incorrectly sized generic orifice can cause under-fire, over-fire, sooting, or unsafe combustion — always verify the size before installing.
Difficulty: Moderate (3/5). Gas and power off. The orifice threads into the manifold behind the burner; access usually requires removing the burner assembly. 30–45 minutes. Do not enlarge or drill the orifice. Because this is a combustion component, a leak-check and combustion verification by a qualified technician is recommended after replacement.
