The Goodman 10716005 is a genuine OEM natural gas burner orifice (spud) for the Goodman/Amana AMES960805CNAA gas furnace. The orifice meters the precise volume of natural gas delivered to each burner, setting the furnace's BTU input and ensuring a clean, efficient flame. A damaged, corroded, or incorrectly drilled orifice causes poor combustion, sooting, flame instability, or improper heat output — always replace with the factory-metered part.
The drilled bore diameter of an orifice is safety-critical — even a small deviation changes the gas rate and can create over-firing or incomplete combustion. Generic or shop-drilled orifices risk that tolerance. The OEM 10716005 is precision-metered to Goodman's exact specification for the AMES960805CNAA, so BTU input, flame quality, and efficiency stay within factory limits. Never substitute an LP orifice for this natural gas part.
Moderate (3/5) — professional recommended. Requires shutting off gas and power, removing the burner/manifold assembly, and correctly torquing the orifice into the manifold. Because this is a gas-carrying component, a licensed HVAC technician should verify manifold pressure and check for leaks after installation.
