The Goodman 10716005 Natural Gas Orifice is a genuine OEM precision-drilled burner spud for the AMVM971005CNBA modulating variable-speed furnace and other compatible Goodman and Amana units. The orifice meters the exact flow of natural gas into each burner, setting the furnace's firing rate and combustion quality. Even a slightly wrong bore size changes the BTU input, air/fuel ratio, and flame characteristics — which is why using the factory-correct orifice is essential for safe, efficient, code-compliant operation.
The OEM 10716005 is machined and drilled to Goodman's exact orifice number for the rated input. Generic or hand-drilled orifices risk over- or under-firing, sooting, and CO production. For gas metering, genuine OEM is the only safe specification.
Moderate (3/5). Shut off gas and power, remove the burner assembly or manifold as required, unthread the old orifice, and install the new spud without over-tightening. A leak check and combustion verification are recommended after replacement — have a licensed technician confirm firing rate.
