Default Having compression/sparking problems. Please help.

Like title says having compression.sparking problems. Did a compression test on my ls/vtec and it was 300 all the way across the board. Not sure why it's the high, but all cylinders are the same.

I pulled all the spark plugs, and all were black except for Cynlinder 3. It was white, and smelled badly of gas. The car starts, but it sounds like a WRX.

Some friends said, it could be an Injector stuck open, which is feeding the cynlider to much gas, which is causing it not to spark up, which will make it sound liek it's running on 3 cynliders.

The motor is also throwing a CEL, which is Code 8.

8 TDC - top dead centre sensor.

Please help, i'm trying to sell my car.
