The orifice is the precision-drilled brass nozzle that meters the exact volume of natural gas delivered to each burner, setting the input rate and the air\/fuel mixture. A damaged, corroded, or incorrectly drilled orifice throws off the firing rate, causing poor combustion, sooting, delayed ignition, or low heat output. Orifices are also gas-type specific — this part is drilled for \u003cstrong\u003enatural gas\u003c\/strong\u003e and must not be used with LP\/propane.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10716003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metered burner orifice \/ spud\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGas type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural gas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meters gas flow to the burner for correct input rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Machined brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e Goodman WGGE4542A115MAA and cross-referenced models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs. Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e The OEM 10716003 is drilled to Goodman's exact orifice size for this furnace's rated input at standard manifold pressure. Generic orifices that are close but not identical in drill size alter the BTU input and combustion quality. For safe, in-spec firing, always match the factory orifice size and gas type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstall difficulty: Moderate (3\/5) — gas connection.\u003c\/strong\u003e Roughly 20–30 minutes. Shut off gas and power, remove the manifold or burner assembly as required, thread out the old orifice, and install the new one to the correct depth without over-tightening (the brass is soft).
