Why would a 94 blazer show hot on the gauge when it is not?
Why would the temperature gauge indicate an overheated condition when the engine is not hot. It could be the gauge in the instrument panel. Unlikey however. More likely it is a bad coolant temperature sensor or the wiring from the sensor back to the instrument panel. Inspect the wiring and replace the coolant sensor. The sensor is not too expensive.

Would the temperature sensor cause the coolant temperature dial to always stay in the middle even with the engine cold and where is it located on a 1996 Mitsubishi Galant?
Unplug the coolant temp sensor and check what the gauge says...If it falls to cold, then the sensor is at fault. If it stays, then the gauge is either faulty or the contact points on the back of the gauges need to be cleaned...

Why temperature gauge needle doesn't go back to zero when turn off car?
If the temperature gauge needle doesn't go back to zero when the car is shut off, it is possible that the needle is sticking. A little WD-40 or electronic spray on the gauge might fix the problem. There could also be a problem with the MAP Sensor or a Radiator Pressure sensor in the engine.

More than likely you need a fuel level sensor. You can buy it at the dealership or maybe your local parts store. The sensor is in the gas tank, so you will have to drop the gas tank and change it out.
