Default how to use "IF" to do nothing if a cell is blank

i want the "IF" statement to leave a cell blank if the referenced cell is
blank. But, if the referenced cell contains a numeric value, then I want the
new location to perform an operation based on the referenced value. For
example, =IF(G186=0,,(G186+2)) works most of the the time but I really want
=IF(G186=blank,,(G186+2)), so that if G186 was blank nothing would happen.
