Don't play around with that.

A phone call to the NG company and they will be there within an hour.
And they have highly sensitive equipment that will be able to tell you
if there is a real problem.

My wife smelled NG once in our house, and we called, and it turned out
there was a minute gas "puff" coming out of the furnace each time it
lit.

The NG guy used his equipment and easily traced it.
