OK, his death was registered in the Leeds registration district in Feb 1997, with an estimated birth year of 1931, from the given age at death.
Birth: Gordon Tyson, Jun quarter 1931, Ulverston, 8e, 956; mother's maiden name Wilson.
There are a surprising number of Tyson/Wilson marriages, even just in the Ulverston district. There are two likely possiblities, so to progress further you will probably need to purchase your granddad's birth certificate. Do you happen to know any names of the brothers?
