I have & hate gas ranges. The smell of gas when first igniting is gross, each time I need to cook food.

The gas doesn't smell, it's an odorant added to make leaks identifiable.

If you're smelling it that much you need to ignite it faster, you shouldn't be letting gas flow for more than a second before igniting it.

Burning an overly rich fuel mixture will definately smell differently than the intended mixture. Which is probably the smell they are talking about. Best i can describe it is a sooty smell

Oh i don't purposefully let it sit around, that's not smart.
