Default 98 Accord LX Fuel Consumption Issue

Last month I replaced

1. Air filter
2. Spark plugs
3. Wires
4. Distributor cap
5. Distributor
6. Both O2 sensors (because check engine light was coming)

Items # 2 to 5 were bought from Honda dealer.

Also, it has new tires (about 8,000 miles), along with items listed
above, I have the tires rotated and air presure checked.

After all these repairs, 98 Accord LX (116,000 miles) is giving me
about 23.3 miles/gallon, up from 21.5 miles/gallon before reapairs.

About 3.5 years (@ 77,000) ago, its transmission broke down and Honda
replaced it for free. I have done most of the service with Honda
dealer.

Is 23.3 miles/gallon OK for my Accord ? I am expecting little more,
about 25.7 miles / gallon. What do you guys say ?
