The 10716005 is a genuine Goodman/Amana OEM natural gas burner orifice (spud) for the AMEC960803BNAD 96% AFUE gas furnace. Threaded into the manifold ahead of each burner, this precision-drilled orifice meters the exact volume of natural gas delivered to the flame — setting the furnace's BTU input for safe, efficient, correctly-sized combustion. Using the right orifice is critical: an incorrect bore can cause sooting, delayed ignition, or dangerous over-firing.
Orifice bore size directly controls fuel input, so a generic or mislabeled spud risks under- or over-firing your furnace. This genuine OEM orifice is drilled to Goodman's factory bore for the AMEC960803BNAD, guaranteeing correct BTU input, clean burn, and warranty compliance. Never substitute an unverified orifice on a gas appliance.
Moderate (3/5) — gas work. Requires shutting off gas supply, removing the burner/manifold access, and swapping the orifice with a properly-sized nut driver or socket. Roughly 20–40 minutes. Because this is a fuel-carrying component, leak-test all connections and, if unsure, have a licensed HVAC technician perform the replacement.
