Finite size scaling (FSS) analysis of the liquid gas criticality is complicated by the absence of any broken symmetry. This, in particular, does not allow a straightforward finding of the coexistence line and the critical point. The numerical flowgram (NF) method is adapted for a controlled determination of the coexistence line and the critical point, with the critical indices μ, ν measured within 1-2% of the total error. The approach based on the NF for measuring the non-analytical corrections to the diameter - the mean density of the liquid and gas phases along the coexistence line - is outlined. Our analysis is a first step toward a general evaluation of isolated critical and multicritical points.
